Primitive Conditions Prevail

ica, Report
s
-Leslie C. Davis, who has spent
two years exploring the Jungles of
the upper Amazon In Peru and
Brazil, spoke to the students and
faculty of 6regon Normal school
at assembly period ' Tuesday on
his fascinating travels. He stated
hat 9 5 per cent or tne continent
of Soutn America lies soum 01
the thermal equator, ana mat
uch of Peru is a vast coastal
plain cooled by an Antarctic cur
rent and having almost no rain
fall. Peru, which was well settled in
the cultivable valleys before the
Spaniards came in the fifteenth
century, was divided up Into large
Spanish land grants after ' the
conquest, and many pt these or
iginal grants are now; converted
Into immense cotton and sugar
plantatons.
Living Cots High
Living conditions in Peru are
expensive, as the food must be im
ported or brought down from the
mountainous valleys, and there
are practically no roads. Mnch of
Lima's mail matter is brought
over a crude mule trail. The
Amazon river has 30,000 miles of
navigable water, but no roads or
highways of any consequence
throughout the basin. Cities
along its banks have paved streets
and automobiles, but o leave the
cities one would need a canoe.
Railroad Grade Steep
Mr. Davis believes that the In
dians there were at one time can
nibals, but there Is very little evi
dence of such conditions now. in
ru there are 115 different
tribes living In the mountain re
gions. Many of the tribes are so
emotely situated that they have
art -met whit persons. The
much famed method of head
shrinking haa fallen into disrepute
since a fine of $200 is imposed on
any one found in possession of a
shrunken head.
The one railway leading to
Lima is at the greatest altitude of
any standard gauge railroad in
the world. So steep is the route
that a train of five cars isitbe
longest that can travel.
